Onderzoekers van onze faculteit ontdekten dat 39 % van de bosplanten westwaarts opschuift ipv naar het noorden en dit door stikstof! Dit unieke onderzoek, onthult de grote gevolgen voor de biodiversiteit. 👉demorgen.be/tech-wetenschap/… @PieterDeFrenne @ForNaLab @ugent

Ghent University is world-class in climate change and biodiversity research. The research we conduct in the Congo basin is of utmost importance, not only for @UGent but also for all local and international partners involved.
Ce matin j'ai reçu une mission de l'Université de Gand (UGent) dirigée par M. le Recteur / Professeur Rik Van de Walle. C'est pour moi la première occasion de recevoir des hôtes de l'étranger ici. Je me suis réjouis d'autant plus qu'ils sont venus de Gand, ma ville préférée !

Trees do more than beautify – they significantly lower city temperatures. 🌳🌡️ Unpaved areas with trees experience fewer days of strong heat stress compared to paved, treeless spaces. ➡️DOI: doi.org/10.1016/j.ufug.2023.…
